Developing Coaching Cultures for Business Impact: Jubilee Insurance and CBA
Summary
The document argues that while sub-Saharan Africa's financial sector has grown rapidly, limited access to formal financial services persists. It identifies a lack of purposeful leadership at middle and senior management levels as a constraint to financial sector development. To address this, Financial Sector Deepening Africa and Creative Metier have implemented a project since 2013 to build internal capacity through executive coaching, which serves as a critical tool for leaders to resolve complex business challenges and improve business performance.
Key insights
- Sub-Saharan Africa was the world's fastest-growing region over the ten years preceding a late 2015 report, with a gross domestic product increase of 51%, and its financial industry outperformed other emerging markets by 11%.
- Despite financial sector growth, formal financial inclusion remained low in 2014, with only 34% of adults aged 15 and older in sub-Saharan Africa holding an account at a formal financial institution.
- A lack of purposeful leadership among middle and senior management is a identified constraint to the capacity of financial institutions in sub-Saharan Africa to support financial inclusion and sector development.
